Answer:

25%

Explanation:

If they are both heterozygous, it means they both have a Dd genotype. If you draw out a punnet square Dd x Dd you end up with the following possible genotypes for the puppy:

DD, Dd, Dd, dd

In order for the puppy to be deaf, it must be dd since deafness is recessive, which is 1/4 (25%)
